Happy Monday, everyone! The countdown to Christmas has definitely begun. I finished shopping yesterday. Hope to wrap everything before we leave for NYC this weekend. Decorations are slowly going up. Cards aren't done yet, but the family needs to come first.

Maybe with the tree skirt placed under the tree, the kittens will stay out of the branches. Someone sent me this funny picture. This is a truly tempting idea. Travis jumped up and almost knocked the wreath off our wall the other day.

I haven't requested any printed books lately since Santa and his elves might gift me one or two. Instead, I picked up these two e-books for my Kindle.

Pelican Book Group is running a Countdown to Christmas sale. Some titles are on sale for 99 cents. 

This book was also on sale, but since I had a promotional credit it didn't cost me anything. 

That is it for me. I hope you have a blessed week.

Only a few more weeks until Christmas and my trees aren't even decorated. The kittens might have something to do with that.

The lights are now up, but they bit a bulb off last night and wound up locked in the crate until we found it.

This is the first thing that happens when I enter my bathroom each morning.

I can honestly say we have never had cats like these.

In the mailbox this week an Amish fiction collection arrived.

I also borrowed these two from the library. Not that I have had time to crack them open.

That's it from me. The work and personal schedule will get hectic by Wednesday, so we will see how much reading I get done. Hope you have a great week.

Happy Monday! It is a wet and white one around here. The first snowstorm of the season has arrived. It started Sunday afternoon and is supposed to go through Tuesday morning. Doesn't that sound like fun? At least it is pretty when it comes down.

We celebrated a nice Thanksgiving on Thursday with family. On Saturday, we took in a Springfield Thunderbirds game. Then Sunday, we went and saw one of our church family play at the Festival of Trees.

Sunday morning, we decided to test out how the kittens would treat the Christmas tree. A few hours later ...

I may end up with a tree that only has lights this year.

My physical mailbox didn't contain any goodies, but I picked up this Kindle freebie Friday.

Now, if I could just find my Kindle Fire. I am sure it is here somewhere. See what happens when you clean. 

What was in your mailbox? Did you celebrate Thanksgiving? Is your tree up yet?
